The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 469 The Empress Dowager's Wish

On the evening of the fourth day of May, Yujia parked at the foot of Wutai Mountain and set up camp. On Yinshi, the fifth day of May, a group of people were going to the temple.

The empress dowager and the emperor came here, and it was the last farewell. The empress dowager was old and could not make another trip. The reason why Kangxi was in such a hurry was because the empress dowager's health was getting worse up.

"Zarafin" Hongli came in from the outside, his face a bit ugly.

Zarafin put down Ha Yihu who had just fallen asleep in his arms, and hurried out to greet him.

"Ah, why is it so late?" Zarafin asked Hongli. "Ha Yihu fell asleep waiting for you."

"Jiaojiao, when you go to the mountain tomorrow, bring Ha Yihu to accompany the Empress Dowager." Hongli looked at Zarafin and said.

When Hongli came back from Yongzheng's tent, he said this nonsense.

Zarafin looked at Hongli strangely, did something unexpected happen?

"Ah Hun." Zarafin stared at Hongli.

"Mama Anguma's health is getting worse and worse. I rushed here this time to fulfill Mama Anguma's wish." Hongli said directly.

Zarafin was slightly taken aback: "The Empress Dowager wants to come and look for her."

Suddenly, Zarafin remembered that Narbu had mentioned that Emperor Shunzhi once worshiped the Buddha here. Although there is no evidence, he heard that when Empress Xiaozhuangwen was alive, she would come here to worship the Buddha for a month, and even when she withdrew the domain No exception yet.

"Yeah!" Hongli nodded, "Anggu Mamo may not be a month away, and Huang Mafa doesn't want her to have any regrets."

Less than a month
"Ah, if this is the calculation, the empress may not be able to wait until she returns to Beijing?" Zarafin worried.

"Well, when Khan Ama came here, he had already made complete mental preparations, and everyone in the capital began to prepare for the funeral." Hongli said directly.

"Ah, let's do as usual recently. If we are too diligent, the empress dowager will become suspicious." Zarafin thought that they had already passed by, and the empress dowager is a very strong person. If his health is not good, he will never disturb his son.

"Don't worry." Hongli said directly.

Just after three quarters of the ugly hour, Zarafin leaned on the cushion in a daze, while Ha Yihu fell asleep in the baby basket next to him. Today, he went up the mountain in a carriage.

"Master, I heard from the sisters around the Empress Dowager that the Empress Dowager's health is not good. When she approached Mount Wutai, she got worse." Ling Lan leaned into her ear and said.

Zarafin woke up in an instant, looking at the night sky outside the carriage, his face showed confusion.

At this time, Sifujin got the news, knocked on the armrest beside the cushion, the carriage fell silent, Yong Huang cried untimely, Sifujin looked at the crib in disgust, the child was a little too noisy.

"Master, this servant thinks that elder brother should show his face more, and Dage should not show his face." Nanny Wu said while looking at Si Fujin.

"Who says it's not?" Si Fujin sneered, "I always want Ha Yihu to show his face. Tell me, what's so good about Ha Yihu is that he must be favored by the elders."

Sifujin would sometimes quarrel and wonder why Hongli didn't care about the only elder brother, but liked Gege instead.

"Master, don't get angry. Even if Ha Yihu Gege is favored, it will only be a matter of more than ten years. If it is in the future, elder brother will be more useful." Wu Mama persuaded.

Sifujin's irritated mood improved a lot in an instant. What Nanny Wu said was correct. Ha Yihu waited until he was a teenager, and he planned to marry him. In the end, didn't he marry Mongolia?

The main gate of the temple on Mount Wutai was wide open, and the abbot and the monks had already finished their morning lessons and were waiting for the arrival of the imperial driver.

The carriage of the Empress Dowager entered the courtyard first, and drove straight to the direction of the fasting room. Hongli and others came down at the gate of the courtyard of the temple. The emperor, dressed in bright yellow robes for worshiping Buddha, took everyone to the Daxiong Hall.

Zarafen asked Mother Su to take Ha Yihu to the fasting room to rest first, and she followed Sifujin into the main hall, and found that Kangxi and Yongzheng were kneeling on the futon piously, and all the female relatives were kneeling behind their husbands, The atmosphere in the hall became more and more solemn.

After the Buddhist ceremony, the queen took the female relatives to the side hall, and just after they were seated, the queen explained the physical condition of the empress dowager.

"Fourth sister-in-law, is there really nothing to do?" Prince Heng Fujin looked at the queen and asked.

"The imperial doctor can't do anything about it. Khan Ama and Lord Long Live have both said that the wish must be fulfilled in the empress dowager." The queen said to her sister-in-law.

Several princes, Fujin stared at the queen, each with their own plans. Prince Heng Fujin was very sad. In the palace, the empress dowager took care of Yinqi the most. Even Prince Heng Fujin received a lot of care. If it weren't for the emperor The queen mother sent the nuns beside her, and she probably still had nothing under her knees.

"Fifth brother and sister, why don't you spend more time with Huang Mama these few days?" The queen looked at Prince Heng Fujin, "Go back and tell the fifth brother that the Empress Dowager is the most important thing now, and the rules can be put aside for the time being."

Prince Heng Fujin hurriedly got up: "Thank you, Sisao, I started to say that I want to spend more time with Mama Mama. The rules in the palace are here, and I still have to abide by them at all times."

Zarafin found that Prince Heng Fujin's eye circles were red, and when it came to the Empress Dowager, Prince Heng Fujin looked anxious.

After paying his respects, Zarafin accompanied the empress and found the empress holding a teacup in a daze.

"Jiaojiao, let's go see the Empress Dowager." The queen looked at Zarafin and said.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hugged Ha Yihu, who had just woken up, and walked towards the empress dowager's tent. Narentoya saw Zarafin and Ha Yihu approaching, and hurried into the tent.

The Empress Dowager was leaning back on the chair exhaustedly, her eyes were a little lost, when she heard Zarafin and the others coming, she hurriedly served tea.

"Huang Mama, how does your body feel today?" the queen asked.

"Queen. You don't have to come here every day." The Empress Dowager looked at Ha Yihu with a smile on her face, "Our Ha Yihu has really grown up."

Zarafin put Ha Yihu beside the Empress Dowager, and the little girl tugged on the Empress Dowager's sleeve with a smile.

"Narentoya, go and prepare the four boxes I packed, and send them to Zarafin's fasting room at night." The Empress Dowager ordered Narentoya.

"Mama Anguma. This is a bit inappropriate." Zarafin quickly declined.

"Those are my dowry, I can distribute it to anyone, I hit it off with Ha Yihu, it would be better to give her more." The Empress Dowager looked at Ha Yihu lovingly, "Queen, you have to promise Aijia One thing."

"Emperor Mama, tell me." The queen looked at Zarafin and said.

"I like Ha Yihu. When she grows up, let her stay in the capital and don't marry her to Mongolia." The Empress Dowager said looking in the direction of the first courtyard.

The queen "Huang Mama" looked at the empress dowager, "Sister Duanmin will be here in a few days. Didn't you keep saying that you want my sister to stay with you for a while longer?"

Duanmin is the adopted daughter of the Empress Dowager, and the daughter of the former Prince Jian Jidu. Due to his overbearing temperament, he has a bad relationship with the current Prince Jian and Kangxi, but his relationship with Yinzhen is still good.
